'...Men speak too much of danger. Let others be terrified by the natural and healthy risks of life! We shall not be frightened...Truth continues marching across the earth unscathed.'-JOSE MARTI

"Nobody is in agreement…It’s that, no one says it and no one takes the risk to say it, to speak the truth. That’s what is happening. In other words, one of the foundations, of what are the regimes in the entire world, in all of history, has been fear and lies. In other words, once you are in fear that's when you don’t take a risk, where you collect yourself and don’t unite…understood? To be in fear is not to offer help to anyone because that signifies risk." -Gorki Águila Carrasco, lead singer, guitarist of the music group Porno Para Ricardo and political prisoner

"Socialist ideology, like so many others, has two main dangers. One stems from confused and incomplete readings of foreign texts, and﻿ the other from the arrogance and hidden rage of those who, in order to climb up in the world, pretend to be frantic defenders of the helpless so as to have shoulders on which to stand." --Jose Marti
